Microsoft to launch xCloud game streaming service on September 15

Microsoft is all set to launch its much-anticipated game streaming service called xCloud on September 15 for Android users in 22 countries.

South Korea will be the only Asian country for the xCloud service’s global launch and India is not part of the list as of now.

Project xCloud will be bundled as part of the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for $14.99 per month, with more than 100 games available on Android tablets and phones.

“Cloud gaming will launch in beta for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members in 22 markets to ensure stability as we scale the feature to millions of gamers,” Kareem Choudhry, Corporate Vice President, Project xCloud, Microsoft, said in a statement on Tuesday.
